Novius OS is an open source CMS based on FuelPHP and powered by the jQuery UI and Wijmo libraries. It was officially launched in December 2011 by Novius, a small web agency based in Lyon, France. The core team that designed and implemented this project is comprised of one UX designer - Antoine Lefeuvre - and three engineers - Gilles Félix, Julian Espérat, and me. However, the software has also received numerous contributions from the open-source community.
In this chapter, we will assume that you use the Version 5.0.1 (Elche) of Novius OS (the current stable version at the time of writing). The official website of this CMS can be found at http://www.novius-os.org/.
